Wikileaks publishes millions of emails stolen from US think tank
FoxNews ^

Posted on 02/27/2012 6:48:37 AM PST by nuconvert

Notorious whistleblowing website WikiLeaks has published five million emails from a geopolitical analysis company that Reuters likened to a “shadow CIA.”

The emails, stolen in late December from the U.S.-based company, could reveal private information on Stratfor readers and subscribers, the details of sensitive sources, and even throw light on the intelligence-gathering community, Reuters reported.

According to a WikiLeaks statement accompanying the posting of the documents, they reveal the inner workings of the intelligence publisher, which works with companies such as Lockheed Martin, Northrop Grumman, Raytheon, and various government agencies.

Well, I hate to see this come out... but it should prove to be fairly interesting reading.

Why couldn’t it be E-MAILS from the ACLU or the Ford Foundation, George Soros, Moveon.org, so many juicy targets on the left.

I have not been a Stratfor subscriber or contributor for quite a few years. However, this Wikileaks monstrosity angers me greatly because these kind of data dumps puts people’s lives at risk. What is this guy’s (Julian Assange) purpose in life, to create as much chaos in the western world as possible? I will not be in the least surprised nor concerned when he contracts a fatal case of “lead poisoning”. He will eventually gore the ox of someone not constrained by the niceties of civil conscience.

Sew the wind. Reap the whirlwind. They people are truly playing with fire. When and if caught, they are truly going to be in a world of pain, and there wont be a damned soul to help them out.

Yes. That's Satan's objective. And these deranged, Godless leftists have fully given themselves over to him, whether they realize it or not.

It would be interesting to know what is really going on in the world, instead of what the compromised corrupt media, private intelligence agencies and think tanks and government agencies decide we should know.

The only thing I trust any of them to do is pull our strings, give us mis-information and make us dance in the direction that will provide profits and power for the few. In the end it has nothing to do with enhancing our freedom and liberty, and more likely just the opposite.

There is a difference between subversion and whistle blowing. Without whistle blowers we get corruption. With corruption we get subversion. We need more exposure of corruption regardless of politics.

Eliminate corruption before we lose our freedom. There is little that we are now told by the “Powers that Be” that is honest and truthful, and that is not a good omen for a democracy or democratic republic as some like to say.

I understand what you’re saying.
ON the other hand, we can’t have people publicizing information that jeopardizes our national security

Very valid yet I wonder, will ever see the emails of say a Valerie Jarrett, or a Van Jones? How about assage the slueth finding out just what is/was up with Tony Resko?
I mean c’mon, how one sided can this get?

If were are going for the premise of honesty, I’d like to see more of Kagan’s personal memos, and Jan Jan’s words and I would love to see what pelosi says behind closed doors! What a hoot that would be!

Oh wait, I forgot one - dicky durbin, the brain that stopped working in the 6th grade, I would be interested to see what he’s been doing all this time, aside from adding to the reputation of IL being loaded with crooks.
